Last week’s “Astronaut Wives Club” launch was far from a rousing success.
This week’s follow-up episode performed markedly worse.
Per fast national data, Thursday’s episode of the new ABC drama drew a 0.8 adults 18-49 rating with 4.50 million viewers. Both numbers were down from those of last week’s broadcast, which posted a 1.1 with 5.51 million.
Among the major broadcast networks, ABC placed fourth in the 8-9PM timeslot.
“Astronaut Wives Club” led into “Mistresses” (0.7 adults 18-49 rating with 3.31 million viewers) and the season premiere of “Rookie Blue” (0.6, 3.71 million viewers).
“Mistresses” was down from last week’s season premiere (0.9, 3.79 million), while “Rookie Blue” fell sharply from the previous season premiere (1.1, 5.92 million).
